Team captain Harmanpreet Kaur presented the President with an Indian team jersey as a souvenir. President Murmu praised the team’s unity, saying,

“This team symbolizes India’s diversity these players, coming from different regions, backgrounds, and circumstances, together represent the true face of ‘India.'”

Earlier on Wednesday, the team met Prime Minister Narendra Modi at his residence. The Prime Minister also praised the players’ hard work and passion, saying that they have made the entire nation proud.

On Sunday, November 2, under the captaincy of Harmanpreet Kaur, the Indian team won the Women’s World Cup for the first time, defeating South Africa by 52 runs in the final. With this victory, Harmanpreet became the fourth Indian captain to lift the World Cup trophy. Kapil Dev, Mahendra Singh Dhoni, and Rohit Sharma have previously achieved this feat.

This victory not only brought pride to India but also erased the pain of losing in the 2005 and 2017 finals. This golden chapter in Indian women’s cricket will inspire many new inspirations in the future.
